Wayne Shorter Quartet: Live At The North Sea Jazz Festival, 1986
by Mike Jacobs
Notable for having some of the hottest young musicians of its day--namely Mitchel Forman (Mahavishnu, John Scofield) on keys, Tom Brechtlein (Chick Corea) on drums and Gary Willis (Tribal Tech, Allan Holdsworth) on bass--Wayne Shorter's first post-Weather Report quartet was as short-lived as it was criminally undocumented. If you weren't fortunate enough to have caught this ...

by Carl Medsker

Tessa Souter: Making Connections Between Erik Satie, Jazz, and Personal Identity
by Victor L. Schermer
New York-based vocalist Tessa Souter is deservedly treasured among jazz fans, critics and musicians alike. Equally effective performing live and on her several fine recordings, she is a jazz singer who combines the sonority, vocal range and discipline of a classical mezzo soprano with subtle and sultry jazz inflections.

Ryan Truesdell / Gil Evans Project: Shades Of Sound
by Jack Kenny
Shades of Sound is not about Ryan Truesdell recreating the past. There are excellent reasons to listen to recreations of the music of Gil Evans. As critic Bill Mathieu wrote of Evans, “The mind reels at the intricacy of his orchestral and developmental techniques. His scores are so careful, so formally well-constructed, so mindful of tradition ...
Paul Bley: Floater & Syndrome The Upright Piano Sessions Revisited
by Chris May
One way for a musician to conjure rapture is through full-frontal shamanic assault, the sonic equivalent of the Orgasmatron machine that Jane Fonda's character encounters in Roger Vadim's 1968 sci-fi romp Barbarella. Funk is an ideal vehicle. But the sensations produced are superficial and short-lived. A less travelled path instead uses subtlety, understatement and nuance, and ...
